Beauty Benefits of Pili Oil
When we hear of the word Pili, what’s the first thing that pops into your head? Food right? I’ve been to Bicol several times now and you can get pili nuts in all forms from candy, mazapan, and even ice cream! Argan, Rosehip, Castor, Emu, and more. But did you know that Pili Oil is now becoming the beauty oil of the future. Pili oil is extracted from the pulp of pili fruit (yum), it’s filled with vitamin E and antioxidants that works as excellent moisturizers. Deep within its forests lies Bikol’s most prized tree—Pili.

Holy Grail: Nivea Star Fruits Lipbalm
I think it’s hereditary, but most of girls in our family suffer from extremely dry lips. Chapping, bleeding, and everything in between 🙁 I own several lipbalms to keep my puckers hydrated but nothing kept them looking “normal”. Others like Godiva licowhite, petroleum jelly, and petrolatum based balms made them chap even worse.
